65 Fallen

Why is it so cold? My head hurts, and my chest hurts too.

Ding Guoguo slowly opened her eyes, and after a dazzling blurred light, she saw a full moon and a starry sky.

Is it already night? But how could she sleep outside?

She moved, tried to sit up, but couldn't. She gave up trying to sit up and turned her head to look.

She saw Situ Xuan lying two steps away from her, half of his body submerged in water.

All the memories before the coma came back. She remembered that she was pushed off the cliff by Zeng Rou, and then Situ Xuan jumped down with her.

"Situ Xuan! Situ Xuan! She shouted twice. But Situ Xuan didn't react at all, and still lay there motionless.

He's not going to die, is he?!

Holding back the pain all over her body, she rolled over and fell to the ground, crawling towards him with her hands and feet.

"Situ Xuan! Situ Xuan! She reached out and nudged him, but he still didn't respond, and she couldn't help but be frightened, and her hands trembled and reached under his nose.

Although weak, he still has breath and he is alive!

She calmed down, rested beside him for a while, and when she had strength, she sat up with her hands on the ground, and reached out to turn him over with great difficulty, so that he could lie flat.

After a few more rests, she struggled to drag him ashore.

How can there be such a stupid person? Jumping off in desperation. If there is not a river under this cliff, they will surely die!

But even if they don't die now, in a few days, they will starve to death, and if they don't starve, they will freeze to death. In the summer of the windy country, the temperature at night is as low as nearly freezing.

She sighed, took off her half-wet clothes, and covered Situ Xuan, who was still unconscious.

He must be kept alive.

She staggered to her feet, covered her mouth and coughed up a mouthful of blood. Her internal injuries were aggravated again, and looking at the dark blood stains on her palms, she curled her lips and smiled bitterly.

Zeng Rou, you are so ruthless! I'm afraid that she won't fall to death, and I have to give her a slap! It's a pity that Lord Yama hates her so much that he refuses to accept her no matter what.

It would have been such a joy to not die, but why did she feel like crying? She sighed, squatted down and touched the pocket of the clothes on Situ Xuan's body, took out a porcelain bottle, uncorked it, poured out a few pills, raised her head and swallowed it.

It's so cold, you have to make a fire, otherwise they won't survive the first night. She looked around, and there were many pines and bushes growing on the edge of the cliff.

She walked over, picked up the dead branches that had accumulated on the ground for many years, carried them back to Situ Xuan, and set up a bonfire.

Her fire fold was soaked in water and couldn't be used, so she went to touch Situ Xuan's arms to see if he had a fire fold.

Luckily, he carried it, and it was wrapped in oiled paper.

She had wondered why he always liked to wrap things in waterproof oilpaper. Now it seems that he did the right thing and not too much.

After making a bonfire, I saw that he was still asleep. She took off her dirty clothes, dried them on the fire, and put them back on. And he went and took the garment that was over him, and dried it by the fire.

She went over and lifted him up, let him lean on top of her, and took off his clothes to hang on the stick. She hesitated when she took off his dirty clothes, but took them off anyway and hung them on a stick. Afraid that he would be too cold, she had to hug him tightly.

"Uh...

Situ Xuan, who had been in a coma, suddenly frowned and groaned, and slowly opened his eyes.

"Awake?"

Seeing that he woke up, Ding Guoguo finally breathed a sigh of relief, she stretched out her hand and touched the porcelain bottle, poured out a few pills, and sent them to his mouth, "Swallow it." ”

Situ Xuan frowned, opened his mouth and swallowed.

"I..." He raised his eyes and swept around, opened his mouth to speak, but coughed up as soon as he spoke, blood spilling down the corners of his mouth.

Ding Guoguo hurriedly wiped his sleeve for him.

Situ Xuan took a deep breath, raised his eyes to look at her, and asked, "Aren't we dead?" ”

Seeing him so weak, Ding Guoguo wanted to cry uncomfortably, but she was afraid that he would see it and make him uncomfortable, so she hurriedly pulled the corners of her mouth and said with a smile, "Of course I'm not dead." ”

"Yes." Situ Xuan snorted softly, closed his eyes, and leaned on her to fall asleep.

Ding Guoguo reached out and pulled the clothes that had been dried and helped him put them on his body. Looking at his pale, almost transparent face, she suddenly remembered Nangong Li.

At that time, he jumped down the waterfall with her in his arms, and he broke his arm. The current situation is very similar to that time, except that Situ Xuan's injuries are even more serious.

She looked up at the night sky and sighed deeply.

The stars in the sky are shining and beautiful.

She looked at such a beautiful scenery and remembered many things in the past, and before she knew it, she leaned on Situ Xuan and fell asleep.

After sleeping for I don't know how long, she woke up from freezing.

She opened her eyes in a daze, and saw Situ Xuan looking at her with a smile. She was in a trance for a while, and looked at him in a daze for a long time before she remembered where she was.

"Are you feeling better?" She let go of her hand and told him to sit up straight.

Situ Xuan smiled lightly, "I feel a lot better, my heart doesn't hurt as much as it did at the beginning." ”

"Yes." Ding Guoguo knocked on his already numb leg and looked up at the sky. The stars have already darkened, the moon has reached the west, and the sky should soon be bright.

"Hungry?"

Situ Xuan suddenly asked.

"Hungry." Ding Guoguo retracted his gaze and nodded.

Situ Xuan smiled slightly, took off the shoes and socks on his feet, stood up and walked barefoot to the water's edge.

Ding Guoguo also stood up, followed him, and asked, "Do you know how to catch fish?" ”

"Absolutely." Situ Xuan lifted the hem of his clothes and stuffed them into his belt, then rolled up his trouser legs and went into the water. He turned his head to look at her, smiled and said, "When we were young, Langka and I often sneaked into the mountains and went down to the river to play in the water and catch fish. ”

Ding Guoguo smiled and didn't answer.

Seeing that she was just laughing and not speaking, Situ Xuan took out the sword at his waist and grabbed it in his hand, stared at the water, and said softly, "I know what you're thinking." ”

"Really?" Ding Guoguo said disapprerovingly, "Then tell me, what I was thinking just now." ”

With a whoosh, Situ Xuan stabbed his sword into the water, and when he lifted it again, he was wearing a fish that was struggling desperately, swaying its head and tail. He took the fish down and threw it on the shore before he looked up at her and replied with a smile, "You must have been thinking about it just now, but I didn't expect someone like me to sneak out to play." Am I right? ”

Ding Guoguo shook his head with a smile and said, "No." ”

"Isn't it?" Situ Xuan was stunned and asked, "Then what were you laughing at just now?" ”

"I won't tell you." Ding Guoguo finished with a smile, turned around and walked towards the cliff. She picked up some branches, rekindled the fire, and sat by the fire watching him catch fish.

In fact, she was just thinking that she didn't have to starve.
